24. Crossing the Ribble Link in a Canal Boat!

#Canal boat #Ribble Link #tidal

In Episode 24, we made it! Narrowboat Liberty crossed the Ribble Link!

Some said crossing The Ribble Link was scary, others said it was no big deal, so we didn't know what to think! Liberty is our full-time home and we didn't want anything bad to happen to her!

In this video, before starting the journey, we 'moor and explore' the Ribble Basin and we cool off in a nice cafe near our mooring, where Tilly has her first puppychino! Find out what she thought of it!
